facetious11 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Okay, so the title says it all, which one is better, i have a 30 watt jtm45, but i cant turn it all the way up to get overdrive without it killing me, so, which one would work better? The PPIMV master volume is alot cheaper, but the ultimate attenuator seems like it may be a better choice. So please, share your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LednyrdZepnyrd Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Hi Facetious11, I think that the Ultimate Attenuator is a better choice, because, (correct me if im wrong) but you are not changing the amp and it can be removed if you dont want to use it.

huw Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Not 5 minutes ago I was reading about the ultimate attenuator on the Les Paul Forum. Some respected folk, with very respected ears, (& even more respected gear to test it all with) are saying that it's the best yet. Guys who have tried all the others & thrown them all away are shouting about this one from the rooftops. Looks like that's the one to get, then.

LednyrdZepnyrd Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 ...but thats just out of other attenuators, how does it compare with a post phase inverter master volume (PPIMV)? its different than a standard master volume(For the better), and is alot cheaper than a UA. Im thinkin about getting a UA for my future 50 watt 1987x (or 30 watt jtm 45); but i might decide to get a PPIMV installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the thread I was refering to they were comparing the UA to everything, not just other attenuators. So they were including master volumes, power scaling etc etc. There didn't seens to be any stone left un-turned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargazer Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 attenuators changes the sound less and you don't need to technicaly change the amp. it's a better choice for my money. and with a PPIMV you almost eliminate power stage distortion.
